>playing Artemis, was put the "engineering" station in another room, with walkie-talkies so you had to actually "call down to engineering" to ask them to do things

I love this idea for realism (and, tbh, to minimise the 'talking-over-each-other' factor... but for me I'd prefer to be in the same room as my friends. I want to see the smiles and hear the laughter. Without that, engineering would just feel like a job well done.

The engineers need to be near the warp core and other engineering stuff, not on the bridge. How are they supposed to crawl through Jeffries tubes if they're hanging out with the captain?
